Taryn Ho has already seized Oregon’s shortstop job as a freshman
Ho has been an immediate-impact infielder for Oregon, earning the starting shortstop role early in her freshman season and finishing 2026 with a .328 batting average, 46 games played, and NFCA All-Mountain Region Second Team honors. Her value goes beyond the box score: she brings reliable contact, steady two-out production, and the poise to handle a premium defensive position under pressure. If you want a quick-turnaround, high-IQ middle infielder who can contribute right away, Ho is the kind of player worth caring about.
